Inadequate Supervision Leads to Resident Abuse
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to protect a resident from physical abuse due to inadequate staff supervision. On the early morning of January 9, 2023, a Certified Nurse Assistant (CNA) discovered a resident with multiple injuries, including lacerations and bruises, after being struck by another resident with a cane. The injured resident, who had severe cognitive impairment and required total assistance with daily activities, was left unsupervised in a secured unit. The attacking resident, who had moderate cognitive impairment and a history of using a cane to get others' attention, was also unsupervised at the time of the incident. The facility's investigation revealed that the CNA assigned to the secured unit had left to assist on another hall, leaving the residents without supervision. The CNA had previously heard the attacking resident tell the victim to "shut up" but did not report this behavior. The lack of staff on the secured unit was a known issue, and the CNA was working there for the first time. The investigation also noted that the attacking resident's cane was found broken in the room, further implicating them in the assault. Interviews with staff and the Director of Nurses confirmed that the secured unit should not have been left without supervision. The Director of Nurses stated that there should have been enough staff to adequately supervise the residents. The facility's failure to maintain adequate staffing levels and supervision directly contributed to the incident, resulting in significant harm to the resident who was attacked.
Staffing Deficiency Leads to Resident Injury
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure sufficient staffing on the secured unit during the night shift, leading to an incident where a resident was injured by their roommate. On the night in question, staff left the secured unit unsupervised to assist on other units due to insufficient staffing. This left the residents vulnerable, resulting in Resident #404 striking Resident #403 with a cane, causing multiple injuries including a facial laceration and bruising. The facility's staffing policy and facility assessment indicated specific staff-to-resident ratios that were not met on the night of the incident. The secured unit had a resident-to-staff ratio of 1:12, which was higher than the 1:10 ratio outlined in the facility's assessment. The facility's schedule showed that there were nine staff members on duty, which was below the required 10 to 14 staff members as per the facility's assessment. This staffing shortage led to the secured unit being left unsupervised when CNA #32 left to assist on another unit. Interviews with staff revealed that it was common for CNAs to float between units, and there was no policy in place for staffing the locked unit. The Director of Nursing and the Administrator acknowledged the staffing challenges and the lack of supervision on the secured unit. The incident was investigated, and it was determined that Resident #403 was physically abused by their roommate, Resident #404, who had the means and ability to commit the offense.
